Job Description

Ready to make a meaningful impact?

At Brighton Jones, we’re a purpose-drive, client-focused team committed to helping individuals live richer lives. As one of the largest RIAs in the nation, we’ve built a culture of continuous growth, collaboration, and community—recognized with 15 consecutive “Best Places to Work” awards including Inc.com’s 2025 list, as well as national honors for community impact.

We lead the industry in aligning wealth, passion, and purpose to help our clients thrive. With over $30 billion in assets under advisement, 300+ teammates nationwide, and a dynamic, team-based approach, we’re growing fast—and we’re looking for driven, curious individuals to join our #OneTeam.

Do you love working with numbers and want to use your skills to help others live richer, more fulfilling lives? Brighton Jones is looking for dynamic Summer Interns to join our team. This isn’t your typical internship - it's an opportunity to gain hands-on experience in the world of wealth management, helping to lay the foundation to a successful career.

Just like a corporate CFO, our team provides holistic advice that spans a client’s entire balance sheet and beyond. We call it our Personal CFO approach – and our interns will see this firsthand in action.  As an intern, you’ll join a client service team, shadow seasoned professionals and contribute to real client work.  You’ll be encouraged to take on challenges, embrace feedback, and enjoy a supportive environment where growth, learning and fun are all part of the experience.

Ready to grow professionally and personally? Apply now and start your journey with Brighton Jones.

• Opportunity to work on special projects to learn and get exposure to different areas of the business (such as impact, investments, marketing, operations, tax planning, MESI, and more.)
• Build your network by connecting with team members across the firm. Learn about their roles, career paths, and experiences at Brighton Jones to broaden your understanding of the industry and explore future possibilities.
• Join departmental overviews to understand how each area of business collaborates with each other to fuel our business’s growth.
• Bond with team members through exciting team outings and various committee events.
• Get involved with various community service volunteer events with your team and entire firm, embracing our value of community.
• Engage in career development programming designed to help you build professional skills, explore future opportunities, and prepare for life after graduation.
